Profile:

 
  Sunday morning at the Gabba, Saurav Ganguly was a man who had won himself, who had overcome 
  his self doubts, who had got himself out of his own way.

    
  When he swept MacGill just wide of the fine leg, Ganguly ran very hard to convert what was 
  nothing more than an easy one by his and Laxman’s standards, into a couple to get to his 
  hundred. He leapt twice in elation, almost tripped over, pumped the air, had arms aloft and 
  without uttering a word told every Australian that he enjoyed the ‘sweet chin music’. That 
  one ball just summed up Ganguly’s day. Urgent, emotional, doubtlessly decisive and arrogant 
  to the core.

    
  A rare mix of pride and humility, Ganguly, in his 11th ton, took us ten centuries 
  back. On a cold day at Lord’s, when the ODI discard scored a century on test debut, he showed 
  a lot of purpose, focus and cold belief that he could do it. And 10 centuries later, the Gabba 
  saw the same self belief, disdain and application from the man most of Australia thought 
  wouldn’t be able to stand up to the ‘chin music’.
